lyrics

Here we are then by the cider
In a room which could be wider
Scrunched in and immobile
It’s a chance to chat a while

What’s your day-to-day like?
Do you get around by car or bike?
Mine’s in the shop so for now I hike

Rare it is to talk to you, cousin
We’re two of like a dozen
Never knew you played the fiddle
Only tag when we were little

You’ve got hopes and troubles like me
Wishing you luck on your college degree
Where you go next will be fun to see

The time has come
To make our respective rounds
The night goes on
Talking to everyone
Waves good-bye
From those with younger kids
Tables coming down
Bedtime is calling

Wishing you a good vacation
Thank you for the conversation
Let routine not be a divider
Glad we got stuck by the cider

Please let’s stay in touch
We’re not distant relatives as such
I’ve enjoyed this night very much
